How many guys kill a fish, take it to a weigh station for an accurate weight, and decide not to enter it because it won't affect the team/weekly/monthly standings? How many guys stash a good fish in a cooler for a few days, hoping they'll catch something bigger, and then get the bigger one, as you can only enter one a week? I'd love to see the stats on how many fish are weighed in on a Friday or Saturday, as opposed to a Sunday or Monday.

What's winning worth, in the grand scheme of things. A chance to drink cheap beer from the Cup? At least when we won it, the beer was Harpoon. Two years ago, the winning team got to drink warm Gansett. At least the 10 monthly winners get a shot at 10 grand.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
